Portable DAB Radio

Been using the radio for a few weeks. I like the sound quality, well good enough for me. I’ve mainly been using DAB rather than FM. Connects well provided signal is good enough. I appreciate its chunky, solid construction but the radio is not too big (as I wanted). Useful carrying handle. The light & ‘reading lamp’ work fine but are more for use when other systems/kit not available, as I intended. I’m not as young as I was so the clarity/size of station identification is helpful & easy to read. The ‘press button’ controls are a nice size work well. I hope they maintain their robustness for if anything these could be the weakest link. Battery life I think is acceptable but certainly supplement with conventional batteries too. Recharge time perhaps a bit slow but I tend to charge overnight so no drama. Took a bit of time getting use to the operation, so the instructions are very useful. Quickly becomes intuitive for the processes one does most often e.g. changing to different stored stations. Guess I’ll need to refer back to instructions to remind myself of how to use other functions. Very pleased with the purchase.

I bought another brand of radio with similar features but I could not get any stations to work on DAB and the radio display instructions were all in German! After spending over an hour trying to sort it, despite the paper instruction sheet being in English, I returned it to Amazon for a refund. I ordered this as a replacement and it's like chalk and cheese! This product has crystal clear sound and the DAB stations were found immediately. All the features work well - I found it a bit tricky to store the radio pre-sets - but got the hang of it and now sorted. The wind-up feature actually works well and also glad I chose one with back up AAA batteries as well as the inbuilt lithium one. It does charge my mobile phone too. I don't know if the solar power function will do much. The lights are powerful and could be quite useful. The SOS alarm is loud - I set it off accidentally! Overall a very good product - I was pleasantly surprised just how good it is, especially after the poor alternative I had previously purchased. Would definitely recommend.

I bought this in Oct 2022, and I'm writing this in Feb 2026 . Works well and reliably. Battery life still good. Great reception. Just one downside; volume control. In the dark or when waking up, I'm always guessing where the volume is with the two-button system. A far more convenient method would be a single rotary knob. If the idea is to keep the exterior design flush for storage, then a rotary knob could be retractable via a push-in/out mechanism. This would also help those with sight impairment issues.

Brilliant piece of kit for our camping trips. Very solid design and a good sound. The torch and reading lamp are a welcome addition. Charge via USB, solar or wind up. Also AA batteries. Power bank will be used to charge our phones while camping with no electric hook up.

Starting with the negs... Colour, nasty, off putting green. Really ugly. Did I say ugly? The strap, too little but very easy to replace. It also has a personal alarm with a red light, pointless. The presets for radio stations, still only managed one, hard hell to do. Too much pressing one button. The positives.... masses.... Charge, from USB... It was charged a couple of weeks back, used it around 3..4 hours a day over a week and half, using DAB signal only. Reception, scanned channels and it picked up masses. We are 80 miles from home now and have not had to re- scan. In fact, not had to extend the areal since new at any point. It has solar power which shows as charging, even on a very cloudy day but not sure if its very good. I can say, it also winds up and that does indeed work. One one min winding has left it going half hour now and it's still going. Also uses battery's... not put any in. Torch and led lights, both work even if radio off, quite good for tent etc... It has USB to charge phone, works very well. Volume.... quite good, loud enough for normal use in kitchen on walks etc, has ear phone plug. Very good kit but lord it is ugly.

Absolutely fantastic radio. It does a multitude of things.

my husband uses this for work and recently it’s not holding any battery charge

This is a cracking little radio easy to use and pick up channels, small and compact light weight and good value for the money. There are lots of option to charge the unit up as well the solar seems to work very well if you just leave it in the sun.

tolles Radio, super Klang und alles funktioniert so wie es sein soll, kann man nur empfehlen

Mon avis après test : Un objet indispensable à avoir chez soi ou dans son sac de randonnée ! J'ai acheté cette radio principalement pour l'intégrer dans un kit de survie / d'urgence, mais elle me sert finalement beaucoup plus souvent que prévu. Je l'emmène régulièrement avec moi à la pêche. ​Ses points forts sont nombreux : la réception DAB+ et FM est excellente, le chargement par dynamo ou via le petit panneau solaire intégré fonctionne parfaitement et dépanne énormément sur le terrain. En plus de faire radio, elle sert de batterie de secours pour recharger un téléphone en cas de besoin, ce qui est vraiment rassurant. ​Elle est compacte, robuste, très simple d'utilisation et hyper pratique au quotidien comme en extérieur. Je recommande à 100%, c'est un produit parfait ! ​Tu n'as plus qu'à copier-coller le titre et le texte dans ton application Amazon. Si tu as une petite photo sous la main pour accompagner le tout, c'est le top.

te duur voor wat je krijgt

Apprezzo molto le diverse funzioni di questo apparecchio, che oltre ad essere buona compagnia in vari momenti (lavori all'esterno ecc), si rivela utile per diverse situazioni quali la necessita' di una lampada in caso di blackout o semplicemente per illuminare i telecomandi durante la visione di un film. Poi e' anche un powerbank, e inoltre la ricarica solare e quella a manovella nel loro piccolo possono garantire un minimo di autonomia in caso di necessita'. Intelligente l'idea di lasciare anche uno slot per normali batterie non ricaricabili, perche' offre la possibilita' di avere energia in caso di emergenza, tenendo un pacchetto di batterie nello zaino (se si fa campeggio o escursioni). L'audio ovviamente non e' Hi Fi, ma nessuno pretenderebbe tanto, pero' la qualita' e buona e ben distante da quell'effetto "sordo" di tante radioline portatili. La gestione dei vari menu' e semplice, e volendo non servirebbe neppure il manuale se non per un paio di funzioni (compressore audio ecc) che richiedono quantomeno di sapere a cosa servono. In ogni caso il manuale e' in diverse lingue italiano compreso. Insomma, premesso che la radio e' arrivata da poco e l'ho testata solo per tre giorni, al momento non riesco proprio a trovare un difetto. La ricezione DAB non e' sempre garantita (l'antenna deve essere sempre alzata) e a volte la si perde cambiando posizione, ma questo e' un problema comune a tutte le radio digitali (presente anche nella mia JBL e nella mia Sony). Per questo non ritengo questo fattore motivo per abbassare il voto, che per me e' sicuramente 5 stelle anche per via del prezzo contenuto rispetto ad alcuni apparecchi di marca, ma di qualita' inferiore e con meno funzioni.

Es la segunda radio que compro y no puedo estar más satisfecho. Lo incluye prácticamente todo (Radio FM/DAB/DAB+, 1 linterna con dos intensidades de luz, una lámpara con dos intensidades de luz, Aviso de emergencia, Puertos tipo A y C de carga de aparatos externos y de la propia radio, Batería recargable con manivela (Relé), panel solar y posibilidad de ponerle pilas. Batería de 5.000mah y Puerto audio jack 3,5 para auriculares (Todos los puertos mencionados tapados para que no les entre líquidos con una lengüeta). En España es verdad que la DAB/DAB+ todavía no funciona pero está prevista su implicación en un futuro por lo que ahora mismo sólo funciona la FM pero ya estaría preparada para el día de mañana con DAB/DAB+. Le doy un 10!
